18th Century Revisited by Lubavitch Day School
Page 15-THE NEWS-February 1991
Students at Lubavitch Day
School took a journey through
time on Friday, Jan. 11 with a
special tour from the Charlotte-
Mecklenburg Historical Associ
ation.
The children explored the life
and experiences of early Amer
ica with the help of Lisa Tappy
who was dressed in Colonial
garments and guided the chil
dren through this fascinating
world which helped found our
country.
The children examined the
tools and crafts of the early
settlers and watched a demon
stration in carding wool and
eventual spinning into thread.
The children were amazed by the
hand-crafted toys and also by
the important role children
played in sustaining the house
hold.
Susan Doobrow, kindergar
ten teacher at Lubavitch Day
School, took her students on a
tour of the Polk house where
they experienced life in a re
stored log house, played with
antique toys and viewed the
simple furnishings.
Mrs. Doobrow made home
made strawberry jam in the old
colonial fashion and dressed in
the garments which helped them
better understand the days of
old.
